Jazz blow out the Mavs, 113-94

SALT LAKE CITY -- The Dallas Mavericks apparently hit that proverbial wall against the Utah Jazz late in the third period Wednesday night at Energy Solutions Arena.

The game was tied 74-74 with 4:24 remaining in the third period before the Jazz erupted on an amazing 18-2 run to end the quarter which helped propel them to a 113-94 victory in their regular season opener.

For the Mavs, the loss came one night after they opened the season with an impressive 99-91 victory over the Los Angeles Lakers. Apparently, some of the Mavs were sitll a bit weary, and it showed on the back end of this back-to-back.
